The Arizona Cardinals just made it official today, putting both running back Jeremiyah Love and wide receiver Kendrick Bourne on injured reserve. We knew the team was facing losing a couple of critical players, and now it’s confirmed. This is a tough blow for their offense.
Key Players Sidelined
Love has been a presence, even running the ball in the second quarter on Sunday, October 4, in East Rutherford. Now both he and Bourne, who were clearly considered important pieces, are out. Losing two weapons like that, especially from the active roster, really changes the dynamic of their attack. Fans have to be wondering how the team plans to adjust without that production and depth.
The Roster Scramble
To try and fill the void, the Cardinals have been busy. They signed wide receiver Harrison Wallace III, who will wear #83, to the active roster from their practice squad. They also brought tight end Rivaldo Fairweather back to the practice squad, giving him #46. These moves come after their practice squad took a hit, with tight end Kenny Yeboah also being placed on practice squad injured reserve. On top of that, defensive lineman Cam Horsley was released from the practice squad. All these roster changes went down today at the Dignity Health Arizona Cardinals Training Center in Tempe, AZ.
Hope For Health
It’s a lot of churn all at once, and it highlights just how quickly injuries can impact a team. The Cardinals are clearly feeling the pinch, and the hope has to be that things get better quickly for them health wise. You never want to see key players sidelined, and now it’s about seeing how the new additions can step up and what the team does to compensate for these significant losses.
